Message: “Unwrapping Love” from Bryan Knurek

When we consider Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus within the Christmas story, we know the least about Joseph--he only appears twice in the Bible and doesn't speak in either appearance. But Joseph was provided, by God, to shepherd and guide Jesus on His mission as Emmanuel--the Lamb of God sent to take away the sin of the world. Jesus is God's gift to the world. Joseph was God's gift to Jesus. Both were given with the all-encompassing love of our Heavenly Father.

Scripture: Matthew 1:18-25

From Series: "Unwrapped"

We cover them with beautiful paper, ribbons and bows to keep what is inside a surprise--a mystery. But in order to know the gift you have received, you need to unwrap the box. This Advent season we are Unwrapping Christmas through the stories of Zechariah, Mary, Joseph, the shepherds, and Simeon – revealing the difference the greatest gift ever given is still making in our lives today.
